Newbie question: to create a custom application for product price comparison

Newbie question: to create a custom application for product price comparison

I'm wondering if anyone here can help me out here, please?

I have not started using Zoho Creator, but based on reading what this application is about, I'm thinking that it may be a good platform to solve our problem.

I would like to create an application to allow my staffs to record price comparison details.  One can create a new record for any product, and anyone can add/modify details about this particular product.  For example, Staff A creates a new product record (say, tropicana orange juice) and enters the price seen in Safeway on a particular date, specification details such as volume, servings, and adds a photo to this record.  Staff B adds new information about a new price seen in QFC on another date for this same orange juice, as well as other relevant details.  

Although this can be done using a spreadsheet, I would like to create a more powerful database in which I can analyze data based on time, price, etc.

Are there multiple ways for my staff to enter information on the price and other details into my created application without being on a computer, say on a mobile device or a tablet?

Before I spend the time to create this application on Zoho Creator, can this be done?

Thanks so much for any great advice out there in advance!!!
